How can you talk to a snake? It's a known fact that all Snakes are deaft.

This is a fantasy world, dear. Anything can happen. Hermione1980 20:21, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

What is the reference for Harry losing the ability to speak Parseltongue? This is the one question I have about this series and have not found the answer anywhere else. -Min Ruminari 04:47, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

List

Could somebody make a list of words known and translated from the films? Such as Heshasa? Meaning open? --Finnigan Gorge 22:24, 18 April 2009 (UTC)--Finnigan Gorge 22:24, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

I found this website: http://wiki.frath.net/Parseltongue-inspired however, I don't know how much of it is canon, so I haven't added any information to the parseltongue page until I'm more sure about where they got their information from, some of it seems rather conjectural. --BachLynn23 17:32, July 27, 2010 (UTC)

Heading Change?

I think someone changed the first heading. I do not recall it being "Harry potter - the years when he could speak Parseltounge." I don't remember what it was, or what it should be renamed, but could someone please fix this? There are so many mistakes it's inbearable to look at. AlastorMoody 19:09, August 4, 2011 (UTC)

he may not have spoken it, but according to rowling herself, he more than merely recognised it (which, really, anyone was able to anyway. remember the dueling club in second year? the whole damn school recognised parseltounge) --79.212.225.30 21:49, June 17, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, I updated the information to indicate clearly that Dumbledore was able to understand Parseltongue. ProfessorTofty (talk) 00:52, June 18, 2013 (UTC)

it still says he was unable to speak it, though we dont know that. rowling has, to my knowledge, never stated that he didn't speak parseltounge, so either way, its just speculation. it should say "but may have been unable to speak it" or something like that --79.212.225.30 11:01, June 18, 2013 (UTC)
